Pirates of the Caribbean 6 is an upcoming American swashbuckler fantasy film directed by Joachim Rønning and written by Craig Mazin and Ted Elliott. Produced by Walt Disney Pictures and Jerry Bruckheimer Films, and distributed by Walt Disney Studios Motion Pictures, the film will be the standalone sequel to Dead Men Tell No Tales (2017) and the sixth installment in the Pirates of the Caribbean film series.

Production

Development

Shortly before the release of the fourth Pirates of the Caribbean film, On Stranger Tides (2011), it was reported that Walt Disney Pictures was planning to shoot the fifth and the sixth films back-to-back, although ultimately only the fifth installment, Dead Men Tell No Tales (2017), was developed. By March 2017, director Joachim Rønning stated that Dead Men Tell No Tales was only the beginning of the final adventure, confirming that it would not be the last film of the series. That September, producer Jerry Bruckheimer indicated that another Pirates of the Caribbean film was still in development.

In October of the same year, Kaya Scodelario stated that she was contractually signed to return for a sixth film. Shortly after, it was confirmed that Rønning will direct the film. Disney announced that Craig Mazin and Ted Elliot will write Pirates of the Caribbean 6. In May 2020, Bruckheimer commented that the first draft of the screenplay for the sixth film would soon be finished. On April 20, 2022, during his defamation trial against ex-wife Amber Heard, Johnny Depp stated he was not interested in reprising his role as Jack Sparrow for another Pirates of the Caribbean film, citing his strained relationship with Disney after they had removed him from the franchise before a verdict was reached in the case.

In February 2023, Orlando Bloom had expressed interest in returning as Will Turner to the franchise. In March, Keira Knightley explained to Entertainment Tonight why she wouldn't make a return to the Disney franchise. "What about Elizabeth Swan?" Knightley joked when asked if she would re-join the crew, given Bruckheimer's recent comments about bringing back the saga, potentially with Depp's Sparrow at the helm. "I mean, she sailed away so nicely. She sailed away in brilliant style." Bruckheimer also commented about potentially bringing back Depp to the saga. In September, Mazin confirmed that his and Elliot's script was bought by Disney and also commented that it was "too weird". He also confirmed that production of the sixth installment had stopped because of the 2023 Writers Guild of America strike.
